recreation in Ere felt in Bantaeng in 2018 during junior high school graduation

 In 2018 when we graduated from junior high school, my classmates and I went on a trip to the Ere merasa swimming pool in Bantaeng to celebrate our graduation from junior high school. We took the school bus that was provided by the school. We were very happy and excited because this was the first time we went there.

   Our journey on the bus did not go smoothly. As we passed a busy highway, our bus driver almost hit a motorcyclist who crossed recklessly. Fortunately, our bus driver was alert and able to avoid a collision. The motorcyclist was also safe and only fell from his motorcycle. We were all shocked and screamed in shock. However, after that incident, we continued our journey carefully.
    Upon arriving at the swimming pool, we immediately headed to the ticket booth to buy an entrance ticket. The ticket was quite cheap, only Rp 10,000 per person. We then entered the swimming pool area and looked for a place to put our belongings. The swimming pool was very spacious and beautiful. There were many shady trees and colorful flowers that adorned the gardens.
   We immediately changed clothes and got ready to swim. There were two swimming pools: adult and children’s pools. We immediately headed to the adult pool because adults were prohibited from going to the children’s pool.
   In the adult pool, we competed to swim from one end to another. We also jumped from a high diving board.
   But it turned out that we were not alone there. There were many other visitors who were also enjoying the swimming pool
    Some of them were friends from other schools who had also just graduated from junior high or high school.
   We greeted each other and exchanged stories about our experiences during school.
   We also got to know each other better and became friends with them.
  After playing in the swimming pool, we returned to our belongings to take a shower and change into dry clothes.    Then we had lunch together under a tent that had been prepared by our teachers before leaving.
  The food was a boxed rice that contained white rice, fried chicken, omelette, vegetable stew, and chili sauce. The food was very delicious and filling.
  We chatted again while enjoying our food. After lunch, some of my friends wanted to continue swimming in the pool. However, I preferred to take a walk around the park with some other friends.
   We enjoyed the fresh air and beautiful natural scenery. We also saw some cute animals like chirping birds, big turtles, and colorful fish in the fish pond.
  I felt happy to be able to relax with my friends without having to worry about school assignments anymore.
  Before going home, we all stopped by the nearest beach for photos together as a sweet memory of this trip. The beach was very beautiful with its fine white sand and clear blue sea water. The sky was also bright with white clouds that adorned it
     We also posed with various styles in front of the camera. We also wrote our names in the sand as a sign that we had been there. I felt happy and proud to be able to travel with my classmates who were like family to me.
   After taking photos on the beach, we returned to the school bus to go back to Bulupoddo. Our return trip was smooth and fun. We were still joking and singing on the bus. We also shared photos that we had taken before.
    I felt sad because this might be the last time we gathered together as classmates. But, I also felt happy because we already had beautiful memories that would never be forgotten.
   Upon arriving in Bulupoddo, we got off the bus and parted ways with our friends. We hugged each other and said goodbye to each other.
   We also promised to keep a good relationship as friends even though later we would go to different schools. I went home with a heart full of gratitude and emotion.
   However, it turned out that when I got home, I found that there was a power outage in my village. I couldn’t turn on the lights or charge my phone. I could only light candles and flashlights as lighting. I was annoyed because this power outage disrupted my plan to see travel photos again on my phone
   But, I also felt relieved because this power outage made me able to rest earlier than usual without being disturbed by gadgets or social media
